tsnt commissioner OF Indian affairs for.
bidding the use of The Indian lang uage
We sy mpathize with the reason alleged
Tor the order viz to hasten the time
when the Indian shall use none but the
English language. Bat We protest
against the enforcement of the order fos
the following essons:
First: 1t defects the very purpose for
which the order was issued, since long
experience has shown that the readiest
way to secure an Intelligent uss of the
English tongue is by athoronga instruo-
tlon in the vernsoular.
Second. The enforcement of this or
der will ont off from many, both old and
young, ell means of instruction.
Third. But worst of all 1t shuts the
avenue by which religious ideas are best
conveyed to q large number of the peo.
pie end 30 entirely stops the carrying on
OF christian work, which the experience
OF generations mot only with Indians but
with other degraded races Of men, has
shown to be the eurest and quickest
method OF civilizing them.
1t the government should allow the
assistant and commissioner to rieidly
execute the order and ii in that event
the religious teachers shall still Insist on
using the Indian language, choosing to
obey Cob rsther'than man, they will be
most heartily and thoroughly sustsiDed
in such q courre by all churches. But we
trust that when this matter is fully
brought to your notice, You will direct
the revoking of the order which is so
directly contrary to these fundamental
principles OF civil and religious liberty.

A gentleman whom l met this after
noon, commenting on the purchase by
Tiffany for $50. 600 francs Of the French
crown jewels, made the remark that there
is more treasure stored in the city Of New
York than in any other city Of the world.
''For two reasons" said he, lit is the
most valuable city to sack. In the first
place, q great amount Of all sorts of treas
ure-bullion, diamonds and precious
stones of oil sorts-is stored in safes which
any expert burglar can open in half ON
hour with appliances which can be carried
in the vest pocket" He said that n man
could carry in his vest pocket that
which would open any safe now in use.
1T does not require an expert man,
either" said he. "You can do it; any
body can do it." Then this gentleman
went on to demonstrate clearly how ii
could be done. He said there is no secu
rity in safes, and the only way is to have
valuables guarded by a Waterman. He
said this is the reason for the growth of
these great safe deposit companies. He
then illustrated it by saying that q vial o
nitro-glycerine, with a percussion cap and
a small piece of putty, was all that was
necessary to do the work on any safe that
was now manufactured.-COr. Philadel-
